Objective To define the risk period of acute pancreafifis-associated lung injury (APALI) by aserial study including a dynamic changes in total water content of lung, ultrastructure and number of type Ⅱ alveo-lar epithelial, and reactive oxygen metabolisms (ROMs) of lung tissue in mice with severe acute pancreatits (SAP)and a clinical analysis of APALI patients. Method ICR mice were selected to establish SAP model. The animalsreceived 7 intraperitoneal injections of caerulein (50 μg/kg body weight) at hourly intervals followed by intraperi-toueal injection of lipopolysaccharide (15 mg/kg body weight). The total water content, uhrastrueture and numberof type Ⅱ alveolar epithelial cells, and ROMs of lung tissue were detected before (0 h) and 6 hours, 12 hours,lday, 4 days and 7 days after SAP model establishment, respectively. In addition, 215 patients with APALI (PaO2< 60 mmHg) collected from the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhejiaug University between January 1998 and Decem-ber 2006 were analyzed. Statistical analysis were performed by using F-test. P-values less than 0.05 were regardedas statistically significant. Results The total water content and ultrastructure mitochondria and lamellar bodies intype Ⅱ alveolar epithelial cells of lung in SAP mice were significantly altered at 12 hours after SAP model estab-lishment, and reached maximum at 1 to 4 days later. A decrease in number of type Ⅱ alveolar epithelial cells andincrease in ROMs reached a maximum at 1 day after SAP model establishment. Furthermore, the results of clinicalstudy showed that the lung injury occurred at (3.1435±1.0199) days after SAP. The data were almost consistentwith the resalts from SAP model. Conclusions The risk period of APALI occurres between the 1st day and the4th day during the course of SAP.

The effects of E-cadherin-transfected neural stem cells (NSCs) transplantation for spinal cord injury (SCI) in rats were investigated. Sixty SD rats were randomly divided into model control group, NSCs group, empty plasmid group and E-cadherin overexpression group (n=15 each). The animal SCI model was established by using the modified Allen's method. NSCs were cultured. Rats in NSCs group were subjected to NSCs transplantation. E-cadherin gene eucaryotic expression vector and pcDNA3.1-E-cadherin were respectively transfected into cultured NSCs, serving as empty plasmid group and E-cadherin overexpression group respectively. At 7th day after transplantation, neurological function of all rats was assessed by Tarlov score. After rats were sacrificed in each group, the number of BrdU and Nestin positive cells was counted by immunohistochemistry. Immumofluorescence method was used to detect the expression of neurofilament protein (NF) and glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP). As compared with model control group, the Tarlov score and the number of of BrdU and Nestin positive cells, and the expression of NF and GFAP in NSCs group, empty plasmid group, and E-cadherin overexpression group were increased significantly (P<0.05), and those in the E-cadherin overexpression group were increased more significantly than the other transplantation groups (P<0.05). It was suggested that E-cadherin could be conductive to nerve regeneration and repair probably by promoting the proliferation and differentiation of NSCs.

Objective To analyze antimalarial assosiated retinopathy detected by different methods with of modern ocular fundus examination, and explore screening strategy and the diagnosis of hydroxych-loroquine assosiatedretinopathy according to clinical experience and international guidelines. Methods Full fundus examination was performed in two patients with antimalarial retinopathy. The related literature were reviewed. Results Two patients had bull's eyes maculopathy and abnormal visual fields. Conclusion Clin-icians' alertness to hydroxychloroquine related retinopathy may improve early diagnosis of hydroxychloroquine toxicity. New objective tests are more sensitive than visual fields examination. Visible bull's-eye maculopathy is a late change, and the goal of screening is to recognize toxicity at early stage.
